2007 HONDA CIVIC Complaints

2007 HONDA CIVIC SI (5,000 MILES ON CAR). THE SIX SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION HAS A PROBLEM WHEN SHIFTING FROM 2ND TO 3RD GEAR. IT SOMETIMES WILL NOT GO INTO GEAR OR WILL POP OUT OF 3RD. THIS CREATES A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AS YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO AVOID AN ONCOMING CAR. THE HONDA DEALERSHIP KEEPS SAYING THAT THEY ARE NOT AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. LOOK ON THE INTERNET AND YOU WILL HAVE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS OF THE VERY SAME THING ON THIS MODEL CAR. *TR

2007 HONDA CIVIC SI, COMPLAINT IS REGARDING THE MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS 3RD GEAR ENGAGEMENT. AT TIMES ITS ENGAGEMENT MAY VARY FROM BEING TIGHT TO GRINDING AND MAY EVEN DISENGAGE OR (POP OUT OF GEAR). THIS MAY LEAD TO A MOMENTARY LAPSE IN CONCENTRATION AND AT TIMES A SOMEWHAT LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLES DRIVEABILITY WHEN THIS OCCURS ABRUPTLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY. IF THIS EVENT OCCURS AT AN INAPPROPRIATE TIME WHEN DRIVING, IT IS MY OPINION THAT IT MAY HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO LEAD TO ACCIDENT'S CAUSING INJURY. *CN

JAN. 14, 2008, WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC, I NOTICE AT 55MPH THE CIVIC VIBRATE AND MAKE AN UNUSUAL NOISE. I TOOK MY CIVIC INTO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP ON JAN. 16, 2008 FOR COMPLAINTS ABOUT VIBRATION AT 55MPH AND CLICKING WHEN TRYING TO START MY CIVIC.

I BOUGHT MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC LX 4-DOOR SEDAN ON MAY 6, 2007. I DRIVE ABOUT 120 HIGHWAY MILES EACH DAY AND IN NOVEMBER 2007, I HAD TO REPLACE THE TIRES BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE WEAR ON THE PASSENGER-SIDE REAR TIRE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY SAID THE CAR WAS "IN-SPEC" AND THAT I SHOULD HAVE ROTATED THE TIRES SOONER. I DOCUMENT EVERY DROP OF FUEL THAT I PUT IN MY CAR. I WRITE DOWN WHEN I CHANGE THE OIL, WHEN I GET IT WASHED AND WHERE. NOTHING DOES UNDOCUMENTED, INCLUDING THE INFORMATION ABOUT WHEN I ROTATED THE TIRES. THAT WAS NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INSISTED THAT I GET THE VEHICLE ALIGNED AND BUY NEW TIRES FROM THEM. I REFUSED AND TOOK MY VEHICLE SOMEWHERE ELSE TO HAVE THE WORK DONE. I AM VERY UNSATISFIED WITH TWIN CITY HONDA IN NEDERLAND TEXAS AND WITH HONDA FOR NOT ADDRESSING THAT THEY HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE SUSPENSION ON THE 2007 HONDA CIVIC. *TR

THE "BRAKE SYSTEM" INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON, AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS ON THE BACK OF THE CAR DID NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS PUSHED. THE CAR WAS ALSO DIFFICULT TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK. THE REPAIR WAS THE REPLACEMENT OF THE BRAKE PEDAL SWITCH, A KNOWN RECALL ON HONDA CIVICS FROM THE PREVIOUS MODEL YEAR. *TR
